why we should be grateful for the
blessings vOuchsafed us, the liberty we
enjoy and the prosperity which. in
spite OF occasional fluctuations, is our
normal condition. All the climates of
the world, except the tropical are
within our borders, and we have all the
products that go to make up the wealth
OF people, from gold and silver in our
mountain ranges to the raw materials
OF those manufactures that play a SUI
preme part in the trade and commerce
OF nations. 1t is the contrast between
our own fortunate lot and the wide
spread poverty and suffering, the blind
cropping for something higher and bet
Ter, and the sense of powerlessness SO
deeply affecting the working classes of
Europe that gives greater point and
significance to our annual observance
OF day of thanksgiving and PRAYER.
and the lesson it teaches us is that nov
erty and suffering is not peculiar to
any one nation but are common to all.
that even we are not entirely exempt
from these social maladies, and that
the best ways of celebrating Thanks
giving are to be liberal to those in need
according to our means.

A Farm Suggestion.

One of our citizens whose business
calls his mind in that direction saws
there are within radius of five miles
OF Smyrna $4,000 of stock. mainly
farm horses, that will be a dead wei0bt
and expense for the next four months
This expense can be largely turned
into profit he says, by disposing of the
surplus horses in PHILADELPHIA or
Wherever market can be found. and
putting the money into beef cattle. the
feeding of which, or turning their corn
into beef will make their crop bring a
much better return than selling direct
IN the market. Besides, an additional
revenue will accrue in the rich manure
pile that the corn thus fed will make
adding TO the fertility of his land while
at the same time the pocketbook is
better filled. In the spring he saws the
farm can be restocked with horses at
perhaps less price than those he sold
In the fall and thus dead capital can
be avoided. The method at least is
something for the farmers to think
about these long winter evenings.

Artificial Chicken Raising

The question Of chicken culture. viz !.
raising them byartificial process seemst to
be attracting public attention as a bus
mess enterprise in this community.
Ihls idea has been fOstered in mart
probably by agricultural publications,
but mostly doubtless by the success of
Leonard Revis who has been at the
business for five or six years, and been
successful because of peculiar adapta-
ton to the business. It is not every
one no matter how industrious and
careful who can run the business
with success and profit.
Joseph II. Wright, one of our young
carpenters, more for winter employ
ment, has made up his mind to try
the business and is erecting for him
self house 80 by 80 feet in size. and
expects to have his incubators in and
commence operations in December.
MT. Wright has given the matter
considerable study, and has plan of
his own to work out.
Alex. Deakyne, one of the enterpris-
ing farmers of Thoroughfare Neck.
has also, we are told, made up his
mind to try hand at the business but
not we think on so large a scale at
first rs the two above named
Henry S. Anthony, another farmer
near town, commenced a trial about
year ago at winter Matching and
has, we hear, been successful. His
hatchery is a building of about 16 bv
60 feet
Chickens thus raised are of course
attended with much more expense
than those Matched by the mother
hen and brought up with her to forage
for them, and hence must sell at a
greatly enhanced price. This is OBJ
tanned by having them in market to

the cities by the time that in the

more probably to follow, there is a
